Sir Ian said: "Having learned of this issue I have asked for an urgent review of the situation and a full report into the circumstances."

PC Alexander Omar Basha - a member of the Metropolitan Police's Diplomatic Protection Group - refused to be posted there because he objected to Israeli bombings in Lebanon and the resulting civilian casualties of fellow Muslims.

Let me get this straight. According to the current mores of Western society, a Christian pharmacist is obligated by law to sell abortion pills, but a police officer that doesn’t like Jews can refuse to defend them from homicide bombers.

The Israelites wound up being handed over to the Assyrians and Babylonians. I wonder who we’re going to fall to
